Title: Lore question: Gil ( only ff7, ignoring side stories or prequels or whatever )
Post by: Tenko Kuugen on 2012-10-01 10:59:18

What kind of standard issue in hard cash does Gil have?
I mean, Euros have 1 cent, 2 cent, 5 cent, 10 cent, 20 cent, 50 cent, 1 euro, 2 euro, 5 euro note, 10 euro note, 20 euro note, 50 euro note, 100 euro note, 200 euro note, 500 euro note
iirc, dollar is similar but goes higher in the notes and has some odd stuff like 25 cent

now, I'd assume that Gil is somewhat modelled after the Yen because the game was made by the japanese after all. I can't remember there ever being any actual indication ingame of what kind of standard issue Gil has

so.. anyone knows something I don't?

This should answer your questions. :-D

Compare the Gil / Gilbart / Giru to Yen, and you will see that you were correct with your reasoning.
